Benefits & Challenges of CE 2.0
3
There are many benefits to the CE 2.0 technology and
this was evident as it quickly became THE INDUSTRY
STANDARD. However that led to the loss of
differentaition between the customers as they all
provide the same technology.

Why Shift to SDN/NFV
4
NaaS - Virtualization
From connectivity networks to IT centric networks
Transform CE2.0 devices to multipurpose functional network
Enabling the SPs increase their revenues from the network
Automated Process
• Reduced operational costs
• make changes to the network less error prone
Higher Agility
Speed deployment of new services
New pure software apps can be deployed much faster
Granular Services
SP need the ability to configure the network with finer
granularity so that they can better support user requirements

Application Prioritization on Demand
Problem:
Providing application based prioritization and QoE
Solution:
Differentiate the various applications in the service using DPI,
and assign each application a dynamic priority throughout the network

Do CE 2.0 capabilities exist in SDN?
Some do
Data Plane Processing
Traffic Engineering
ACL
QoS
Some still don’t
Interop may be not trivial, because of HW OpenFlow
capabilities., Still requires integration effort
Service Resiliency model not adopted
OAM not mature
Extend QOS functionality
